About the product:
Less than a minute from bean to espresso, with 25 grind settings and a constant 22lb tamp: the Barista Express Impress adds the Impress Puck System to the Barista Express. The dose is calculated from your last grind, and if it comes out high or low the machine corrects the next one. PID controlled Thermocoil heating delivers water at 200°F.
We think it is the right step for people who want to learn espresso without fighting the puck. The steam wand stays manual, so the milk is all yours.
How to use:
Fill the 2L tank and the 250g hopper, then switch on.
Grind into the portafilter and let assisted tamping finish the puck.
Lock it in, choose a single or double shot, then steam the milk.

FAQs:
Q: Do I need to tamp by hand?
A: No. Assisted tamping applies a constant 22lb and finishes with a 7° twist.

Q: Is the milk texturing automatic?
A: No. The steam wand is manual, so you make the microfoam yourself.
